    Seems to have corrected itself – never mind!

    Well, I’ve been round & round with GoDaddy about this. Everything seems to be okay yesterday, and then this morning 500 Internal Server Error pops up again. This time I went to a different tech support guy who was a bit more helpful – the last kept telling me it was WordPress that was hosed and all of their stuff was fine.

    Anyhow, this guy looked at everything and had me rename the .htaccess file and try again. Everything is working, so he thinks it’s this file doing the damage. This is the file:

    addhandler x-httpd-php-cgi .php4
    addhandler x-httpd-php5-cgi .php
    addhandler x-httpd-php5-cgi .php5

    The site is http://www.theampat.com. The .htaccess file is still .htaccess.bak2, and all seems to be working fine. Any input?

    Yep! Renamed the twentyten folder, reset the plug-ins in PHPMyAdmin, uploaded the new files, with the exception of the wp-content folder and its files, and then ran upgrade.php.

    The blog itself seems to be up, but everything is dog-slow, and when I try to re-activate any plug-in, I get an internal server error. And the only thing I can equate this with is my editing of the plug-ins table entry.

    I’m ready to do a clean install, but I hate to lose everything. But if the database is corrupted… What happens if I do a fresh install, connect it to a new d/b, and keep the contents folder?

    Well, the blog is back, although I got an internal server error after the update ran. And now I”m getting the message that:

    An automated WordPress update has failed to complete – please attempt the update again now.

    And now I can’t get the plug-ins to re-activate. What happens if I do a new install and save my content folder, then move it to the new install?

    Do I upload all of the new files (with the exception of the wp-content folder)to my existing directories, or do as the install says and upload them to a new directory and run it from there? I have made the changes to the plug-ins folder, and have re-named the twentyten folder to twentyten-old.

    Bingo! It was a non-breaking space (&nbsp) that looks like it crept in when I deleted a video. Thanks! I can usually catch these things, but my 64-year-old mind skips occasionally.
